Question 1

How early do we start?

Accepted Answer

Coordination starts anywhere from 4-6 months prior to your wedding depending on the package you select and the amount of planning needed.

Question 2

What exactly does a wedding Coordinator do?

Accepted Answer

An experienced wedding coordinator will make sure your day runs smoothly by managing timelines, coordinating vendors, overseeing setup, and handling and any last minute issues. My goal is to let you enjoy your wedding without stress while ensuring your wedding goes according to plan. I am there from the beginning to end, checking in with you throughout the night to ensure you are ready for the next event on the timeline. I am the ice-refiller, dress-fluffer, drink-holder, Boutineer-pinner, and everything in between.

Question 3

How early do you arrive on the wedding day?

Accepted Answer

Typically around 10am or 11am depending on set up need and venue stipulations. I like to be there as early as possible to ensure everything is set up and ready for the big day.

Question 4

What is the size of your coordination team?

Accepted Answer

The size of the team depends on your specific wedding day needs. For most events, I coordinate with 1-2 assistants (at no extra charge to you), depending on the amount of set-up, venue logistics, and guest count. This ensures that everything runs smoothly and your day goes exactly as planned.

Question 5

Do I still need a 'Day-Of' Coordinator if I already have a venue coordinator?

Accepted Answer

YES! Absolutely, as this is one of the most common misconceptions couples have. A venue coordinator is there to manage the venue only, not your vendors, timeline or any decor set-up. A Day-Of coordinator manages your wedding day - aligning vendors, following timelines, set-up of decor and personal details, and solving any problems so you and your family can be fully present and enjoy every moment.

Question 6

How much time should I expect to spend with you before the wedding?

Accepted Answer

This depends on how much support you will be needing! Typically I like to meet with couples once a month after coordination planning begins, which helps keep everything updated and organized so you're not having to provide all the information at once. I am happy to adjust based on your needs - whether you want ongoing guidance or minimal meetings until we get closer to the wedding day. Either way, I make sure all the details are finalized and nothing is missed.

Question 7

Do you help coordinate the rehearsal?

Accepted Answer

Yes! I strongly prefer to be present for the rehearsal and help walk the wedding party / family through a full run-through. Its a great icebreaker for everyone to meet, ask questions, and visually see where to be and when. A practice run will help eliminate confusion and questions for you on the day of.
